About the Artist
Carlos Bunga is a highly acclaimed Portuguese artist whose practice revolves around the creation of ephemeral installations and sculptures using humble, readily available materials such as cardboard, packing tape, and blankets. His distinctive approach focuses on the deconstruction and reconstruction of architectural forms, transforming mundane materials into profound statements on memory, impermanence, and the built environment. Bunga's site-specific works often appear as ruins or temporary shelters, inviting viewers to reflect on the transient nature of structures, human habitation, and the continuous cycles of construction and decay, emphasizing the process of making and unmaking.
